Year 2013, continuous measurements, every 15 minutes were made of conductivity, water temperature in Bear Brook in Reading, MA, a small headwater stream draining Cedar Swamp, a mainly wetland catchment (49% wetlands and swamp + 36% forest) in the Ipswich River watershed.
Conductivity and water temperature were measured using a HOBO datalogger suspended inside a perforated PVC pipe in the center of the stream channel.
Specific conductance was calculated using a conductivity assistant in the HOBOware software.
NOTES AND COMMENTS:
The datalogger failed between September 24, 2013 and October 16, 2013. Logger was taken out of service on October 16, 2013 and replaced on December 30, 2013.
FLAGS:
1 -- Datalogger not deployed
2 -- Datalogger malfunction
Maintenance:
Measurements completed for year
